Instead of refreshing feeds all day, you can route Stock Trading News into a clear playbook on Coinrule. Set triggers that react to price and volume after a headline hits, then execute through Alpaca, Robinhood, TradeStation or Charles Schwab. For example, buy when a stock gaps up 3% at the open and holds above VWAP for 15 minutes, then place a 1.5% stop. You stay consistent even when the tape gets noisy.
Traders often overreact to breaking stories because the first move is not always the real move. Use confirmation like RSI, moving averages and volume filters to avoid chasing. A simple rule is to wait for RSI to recover above 40 on 1-hour candles while price stays above MA50 before entering. You can also require volume to be 1.8x the 20-day average to validate momentum.
Earnings, CPI and Fed days create predictable volatility windows. Build schedules that only allow entries during defined sessions and automatically reduce size outside them. For instance, trade only from 9:35 to 11:30 ET, cap exposure at 20% of equity, and pause new orders if VIX rises 10% intraday. The platform logs every decision so you can review what worked.
News-driven risk controls
Risk rules matter most when spreads widen. Add max daily loss limits, per-symbol position caps and cool-down timers after stop-outs. Example: if two stops hit in one ticker within 60 minutes, disable that rule for the rest of the day. These constraints keep a bad news cycle from turning into revenge trading.
Broker-ready execution
Connect your brokerage and run the same logic across stocks and ETFs without changing your workflow. Coinrule focuses on rule-based execution, while your account stays at the broker and you keep control of permissions.
News Spike Filter
Trades only when price moves 2.5% within 10 minutes and volume is above 2x average. Enters on a pullback to VWAP. Exits with a 1.2% stop and a 2.4% take profit.
Opening Range Breakout
Marks the first 15 minutes range, then buys the break with a volume filter. Sets stop at the range low. Takes profit at 2R or trails after 1R is reached.
Gap Fill Hunter
Sells short after a 4% gap up that fails to hold above the open for 20 minutes. Covers near prior close or at 1.5R. Skips trades when spread exceeds a set threshold.
Earnings Drift Rider
Enters the day after earnings if price holds above MA20 and closes green. Adds only if RSI stays below 70. Exits on first close below MA20 or a 3% trailing stop.
Post-Earnings Mean Reversion
Buys oversold earnings drops when RSI falls below 30 on 4-hour candles. Requires a bullish close above the prior candle high. Exits at MA50 or when RSI exceeds 55.
News Spike Filter
Trades only when price moves 2.5% within 10 minutes and volume is above 2x average. Enters on a pullback to VWAP. Exits with a 1.2% stop and a 2.4% take profit.
Opening Range Breakout
Marks the first 15 minutes range, then buys the break with a volume filter. Sets stop at the range low. Takes profit at 2R or trails after 1R is reached.
Gap Fill Hunter
Sells short after a 4% gap up that fails to hold above the open for 20 minutes. Covers near prior close or at 1.5R. Skips trades when spread exceeds a set threshold.
Earnings Drift Rider
Enters the day after earnings if price holds above MA20 and closes green. Adds only if RSI stays below 70. Exits on first close below MA20 or a 3% trailing stop.
Post-Earnings Mean Reversion
Buys oversold earnings drops when RSI falls below 30 on 4-hour candles. Requires a bullish close above the prior candle high. Exits at MA50 or when RSI exceeds 55.
MA Crossover with Volume Filter
Buys when MA20 crosses above MA50 and volume is 1.5x the 20-day average. Sells on crossback or a 2% stop. Works well for trend confirmation after catalysts.
Stop Loss and Trailing Take Profit
Sets a fixed 1% stop on entry and activates a 1.8% trailing take profit after price gains 1.2%. Helps lock gains during fast moves. Can be paired with any entry signal.
Support and Resistance Bounce
Buys near a defined support zone after two rejections and a higher low. Confirms with RSI above 45. Exits at the next resistance level or on a 1.3% stop.
Volatility Regime Switcher
Uses ATR to detect high-volatility days and reduces position size by 50%. In low volatility, it allows tighter stops and more frequent entries. Prevents overtrading when ranges expand.
Portfolio Rebalance
Rebalances a stock and ETF basket back to target weights weekly. Skips rebalances if any holding is down more than 6% that week. Keeps allocations disciplined during news cycles.
When Stock Trading News breaks, speed helps, but structure helps more. Define what counts as a signal, what confirms it and what invalidates it. You might require a 5-minute close above the premarket high, then enter with a 0.8% stop and a 1.6% first target. If the move stalls, a time stop can exit after 45 minutes with no progress. This turns chaos into a repeatable process.
After a big story, the first hour can be the most erratic. Add time filters so rules only trade after spreads normalize, or only during the opening range. Cool-down timers prevent rapid re-entry after a stop. These small constraints often improve consistency more than adding new indicators.
Rather than juggling multiple apps, run one set of rules and deploy it where you trade. Coinrule supports workflows that fit different broker setups, including Tradier, Trading212, Public and Tastytrade. You can clone a strategy, adjust position sizing per account and keep the logic identical. That makes performance comparisons cleaner.
Every automated decision is recorded, which makes post-trade review straightforward. Look for patterns like entries that work only when volume is above a threshold, or stops that are too tight during high ATR. Then iterate one variable at a time. Over a month, small changes compound.

News-driven price action often fakes out before trending. Build invalidation rules that exit quickly when the move fails, and avoid re-entry until a new structure forms. A simple approach is to require two higher closes before re-arming a long breakout rule. This reduces churn.
Single-trade stops are not enough on volatile days. Add a portfolio drawdown rule that pauses all strategies if equity drops 2% in a session. You can also cap total open positions to avoid accidental overexposure. These controls keep the system stable.
Automation does not mean you stop paying attention. Set alerts for unusual spreads, sudden volatility or repeated order rejections. That lets you intervene when market conditions change. The goal is controlled execution, not blind execution.
If a rule has too many conditions, it becomes hard to debug. Start with one entry signal, one confirmation and one exit plan. Then measure results over a fixed sample size, like 30 trades. Complexity should earn its place.
Use the activity feed to see which condition triggered and why an order was sent. Compare winners and losers by time of day, volatility and volume. This turns trading into an engineering loop. Small refinements become obvious.
Connect a broker, pick a template and set your risk limits before the next headline hits. Start with one ticker or one ETF, then expand once the workflow behaves as expected. Coinrule helps you stay systematic when the market is loud.
